  1. AHC: Successful Japanese Invasion of Australia

    Dec. 8, 1941 - The Empire of Japan signs an alliance with the Emu Nation Jan. 1, 1942 - IJA & IJN occupation troops parade through Sydney Dec. 10, 1942 - In the wake of a carefully timed backstab, elite stormtroopers of the Greater Pacific Emu Empire nest victoriously amongst the shattered...

  2. Main Reason for the Lopsided Coalition Victory in 1991 Persian Gulf War

    The Coalition’s walkover victory in Desert Storm had everything to do with the incompetence of the military they faced off against; the tech advantage merely tipped an already well biased scale even further in its favor. However impressive the armed forces of Iraq looked on paper, the reality of...

  3. Eyes Turned Skywards

    More than a little sad to see this timeline finish, but what a way to close it out! The closing render by nixonshead completely drives home the point of what we may have missed out on in our own history. That panorama of operations at Armstrong Base evokes the many concept images for moon bases...

  4. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    It'll take some time for the full realization to set in with the PLO on what exactly they've unleashed, and for the moment they're all too caught up in patting themselves on the back for really sticking it to the Israelis for the first time in years. A large portion of the Palestinians will...

  5. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    You know, it's funny you should mention that...howdy, all. It's been a while. :o Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War XX “My father was a truly great man, but even great men may have their flaws. My father was too merciful with his enemies, too merciful to take that final step and do...

  6. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Thank you very much! While I have a general framework in mind for the remainder of the timeline, the only thing set in stone for the '92 election is having someone other than Clinton getting elected. It brings up some rather interesting alternative candidates that I'll need to consider, but I do...

  7. And To Think It Might Have Happened: A Ukraine War Timeline

    That's pretty much one of the missions in World in Conflict; has U.S. and Norwegian SF infiltrating the Murmansk area to do just that, as well as recover some recon intel. Ah, Larry Bond...your story was more the realm of fantasy, but it was such delicious fantasy. So many hours lost to that...

  8. And To Think It Might Have Happened: A Ukraine War Timeline

    An interesting thought that I'm kind of surprised no one has raised yet: with Eastern Europe in flames, the future is looking somewhat bleak for the International Space Station. If the expanded Ukraine war in this scenario doesn't butterfly the launch of the second half of Expedition 39 on March...

  9. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Thank you very much, glad you're enjoying it. Insert 'not-dead-yet' statement here. :o Mentally, I have every hope of getting things back on-line with this. Physically...it's taking a bit more effort to convince myself to get off my lazy rear, stop tinkering around with space station models...

  10. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Thank you all for understanding, everyone. Like I said, trying to refresh my memory concerning everything that's happening and trying to get things back on track. In response to ThePest179's comment, while I'll admit that the timing is somewhat inopportune given the current flareup and...

  11. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    So...I suppose this is the part where I slink in well past curfew. To everyone who's been following this thread and wondering what's been happening, the lack of updates stem from a few reasons. First and foremost, real life has indeed been an issue, though things are looking up there. I won't go...

  12. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Hey everyone. Well, it ended up taking a bit longer than I anticipated, but we are indeed back and raring to see how things play out in this unfortunate Middle East. Thank you all for your patience, and hope that you like the latest, very belated offering. This chapter doesn't cover quite as...

  13. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Salutations, all. First of all, I'd like to extend my thanks to all of you for your kind words and understanding with everything that happened. I really, truly appreciate it. To say it's been an interesting couple of months would be somewhat of an understatement, but I've made it this far so...

  14. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Hey, everyone. I know that I couldn't have picked a worse time in the story to do this, but my personal life kind of exploded in my face a few days ago and I'm going to need some time to sort this out. In a nutshell, my fiance announced that she was leaving me for another guy she just met, but...

  15. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Hmm...well, if it's detracting too much from the narrative I can try fiddling with the coup segment later tonight to make it a more indigenous operation with a bit of nudging and support from the British. As for suspicions and claims of CENTCOM's involvement, I could go either way there. This TL...

  16. Gamble In The Desert: What If Saddam Came South In August 1990?

    Most excellent, looking forward to the next update! :D

  17. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Thanks! Re: Bahrain, it's my fault for not explaining the situation more clearly in the update, but let me try here. From the moment the Emir dropped out of the alliance, British intelligence has been working with contacts within the Bahraini government to try and repair things. A large chunk...

  18. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    And so we come to the TL's second WHAT A TWEEST; glad to see that everyone's enjoying the ride. Well, enjoy in the same sense of watching a train wreck unfold in slow motion. :eek: The OTL incident of Saddam's convoy coming under attack and him barely escaping kept intriguing me with its...

  19. Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War

    Lines in the Sand: A History of the Gulf War XVIII "Oh my brothers, the mother of all battles is upon us! The deeds of our people and our great victories will be sung of with praise by our children's children." - Saddam Hussein “The Iraqi military’s sum experience in military affairs is...

  20. Operation Tropic Gull: A US Invasion of Cuba in 1980

    Not a problem! This board has lost more potentially great TLs because the OP decided to take constructive criticism as personal attacks and dug in their heels or lashed out. To that end, thank you for not going that route. :) Definitely looking forward to seeing the revised Tropic Gull. Best...
